Hello
Was wondering who has this fridge and how many watts does it draw when plugged into 12v on the average. I know it’s a variable speed compressor and when they say on the web that it draws less than a 60w light bulb I believer that’s when it’s plugged into 110v.

Hey there I have this fridge and its really efficient. I run it off a Jackery500 and usually when I pull up to camp its at 100% so sitting for the evening through the night and the next morning it will usually take it down to 70 percent but then I put the solar panel out in the morning and when the sun goes down its usually charged back up. I also can go 2 days before the jackery is dead. When the fridge is cold and not opened it usually draws 11w max but max when its not cold yet draws about 60w
 
I since have bought it and tested it empty. It draws 60-70 watts on intitial pull down. Then around 45 each time it cycles on. The only thing I don’t like is that it’s set on a 2° differential on/off
I do refrigeration and feel this short cycles.
